Tourists in line to watch the famous annual Edinburgh Military Tattoo at Edinburgh Castle spotted a strange glowing object in the skies. It hovered for awhile before disappearing.

Catherine Stuart and her mother were in line on Saturday night at about 10:30 pm when they spotted the object. She told the Edinburgh Evening News that at first they thought it was a bird, but she says, “It was very strange to see because when we looked at it again it didn’t look like a bird.”
Stuart continued, “It was hovering around and then it disappeared. It was a weird shape, like a square light. I have no idea what it was.”
he says the light disappeared soon after she took a picture of it.

The Edinburgh Evening News goes on to say that the most likely explanation for the object was the International Space Station (ISS), which has been doing passes over London. However, checking the satellite tracking site Heavens-Above, it does list the ISS passing over London, but at 9:34 pm and then again at 11:10 pm. Both times very low to the horizon.
The Edinburgh Evening News also suggests it could have been the ATV-5 cargo ship. However, it is in close proximity to the ISS and was seen at the same times as the ISS over London.
While the ISS is spectacular to view, and is often misidentified as a UFO, it moves at a steady pace across the sky. Stuart described something that hovered and then disappeared. She also said she looked away and then looked back later and it was still there.
There are also other possible prosaic answers for the lights, such as a remote controlled drone with LEDs. Still, from looking at the picture, I can see how Stuart would have been taken aback by the strange light over the majestic Edinburgh Castle.
British Scientist Claims Ebola Virus Came From Space
As the deadly Ebola virus spreads across other countries, strange theories how the virus came into being keeps buzzing.
The latest theory from a British engineer is that the virus is alien, and did not originate on Earth.
Ashley Dale, who is pursuing an engineering Phd in Bristol University, claimed that there is a possibility that the deadly bug landed on Earth from space, the Daily Star UK has reported.
“There is always a chance the Ebola virus could have come from outside this planet, at some point during the evolutionary process, ” Dale told the newspaper.
“We have meteorites from Mars landing on our planet every year, and we know bacteria can survive the journey. There is every chance Ebola arrived on this planet from somewhere in space,” he added.
“Virus particles can also make it through space undamaged, so there is definitely a possibility something could have arrived back in the evolution of the planet that we are seeing now.”
Dale told the newspaper that there is every possibility that the virus survived the planet’s evolution, which is why it’s making its presence feel now.
According to a World Health Organization (WHO) report, the Ebola epidemic has already claimed nearly 1,000 lives in Africa while the tropical disease continues to spread Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone.
Nigeria and Benin governments have also confirmed there are cases of Ebola in those countries.
Meanwhile, Nigerians are falling victim to a rumour which says that Ebola can be cured by bathing in “hot water and salt”.
Around 20 Nigerians have also been hospitalised from eating salt and bitter kola to prevent infection. Despite the Nigerian government issuing warnings that the treatment isn’t effective, the rumor is being spread by text message and social media. – IBTimes
On a chilly Saturday night in November 1974, three teenage boys lit up a Carbondale, PA silt pond and sparked a UFO legend that still glows 40 years later.
The boys, including Robert Gillette Jr., reported to police on Nov. 9 they saw “a red, whirring ball fly over Salem Mountain and into the mine pond.”
What would become known as the “Carbondale UFO” drew police officers, military, UFO enthusiasts and curious spectators from across the country. The glow lasted nine hours. After two days, a diver emerged from the murky waters with nothing but an old railroad lantern in hand.
Twenty-five years later, Gillette admitted throwing the battery-powered lantern into the pond to scare his sister, but the legend lives on.
The city plans to mark the upcoming 40th anniversary of the “close encounter” during the Pioneer Nights – Ethnic Heritage Festival with the Carbon D. Alien Regatta on Saturday.
Alex Kelly, co-owner of Icon Technologies, grew up down the road from the silt pond. He doesn’t remember any UFOs or little green men but he does recall the “chaos the next day.”
“There were cars everywhere, we couldn’t get out of our driveway,” he said.
A Scranton Times reporter described seeing licenses plates from 17 states and Canada at the pond. A story published on Nov. 12, 1974, reports that crowds showed up from New York and Connecticut. Every regional newspaper, radio and television station was live from the scene including a three-man news crew from Philadelphia. UFO specialists from New York, New Jersey and Northwestern University in Illinois investigated. A lengthy report by Matthew J. Graeber from the UFO Research Investigation Center in Philadelphia is still on file today at the Carbondale Historical Society.
Police manning the overwhelmed phone lines reported calls from as far away as England. People of all backgrounds and occupations surrounded the pond behind Russell Park, making the light in the water the lesser of then-police chief Francis Dottle’s worries. He was more concerned about the masses on the shore.
Kelly said believers and non-believers of the legend are separated into a few groups. Some believe the glow was caused by a lantern thrown into the pond. Others insist a craft from outer space landed in the small pond and the government covered it up.
One popular theory is that the illumination came from a fallen spy satellite, maybe from Russia, maybe from the United States, he said.
Jim Racht, also a co-owner of Icon Technologies, said, “People either roll their eyes or say, ‘Yeah, they took something out of there.’”
Involved with the Carbondale Historical Society and the Route 6 Task Force, Kelly and Racht began researching the event after an interview for WVIA’s “My Town” documentary about the city. Kelly said when Michele Bannon, city clerk, suggested including the UFO landing in the town’s history, the two men raised their hands and got to work. One question they asked themselves was if there was a UFO, who drove the craft?
Shortly after the documentary premiered in 2012 the two men started the website, carbondalien.com. The site features old and new photos of Carbondale doctored to include the life-sized green extraterrestrial plastic figure, which they took to the WVIA documentary premiere. A comprehensive history of the lore is also on the site.
In Racht’s 2010 book about the history of Carbondale, he dubs the incident the “Birth of a Suburban Legend.”
Sitting in their office next to a nearly five-foot-tall green extraterrestrial-looking figure wearing a white T-shirt, Kelly and Racht said one thing that most Carbondale residents agree that a flat bed truck hauled something covered by a blue tarp away from the scene all those years ago.
What it concealed remains a mystery. – CitizensVoice
It was two days right after hurricane Wilma in October 2005 in North Miami Beach, Florida, we had a black out for about three weeks.
I’m sitting outside with a friend looking at the stars and we saw a manta ray shaped object, looked like it was trying to camouflage in the sky. All of the sudden starts moving and what it looked like a star had started to move and realized it was a light in the center front of this object, kind of a pale orange color flickering.
It was moving west to east and disappeared behind the buildings next door. The “wings” rippled like a real manta ray would. Half an hour later we saw big white throbbing lights right in front of us, we got scared and ran inside.
It was definitely not from this planet! I keep doing research since, I would never forget what we saw! Just wanted to share, thanks.
Wederopstanding: nieuwe film over Bosnische piramides
Wederopstanding: nieuwe film over Bosnische piramides
De Franse regisseur Chris Nahon werkt momenteel aan een documentaire over de Bosnische piramides. “De grootste piramides ter wereld zijn gevonden in Europa, in Bosnië om precies te zien,” zegt hij. “Deze piramides zijn ouder dan de Egyptische piramides en in sommige gevallen groter dan de Grote Piramide van Gizeh.”
De piramides zijn in de afgelopen tienduizenden jaren bedekt met bodemmateriaal en vegetatie. Van een afstand zien ze eruit als gewone bergen, aldus Nahon. De piramides zenden nog steeds elektromagnetische straling uit. De tunnels die onder het piramidecomplex lopen, zijn volgens de regisseur in staat de aura van mensen te versterken. Ze bevatten bovendien een hoge concentratie negatieve ionen, die een gezondheidsbevorderende werking zouden hebben. Nahon voegt toe dat de tunnels ook een extreem hoge Boviswaarde hebben.
Regisseur Chris Nahon
“Deze 30.000 jaar oude hoogontwikkelde, verloren beschaving geeft ons de kans – door middel van de monumentale bouwwerken die ze voor ons heeft achtergelaten – om onze geschiedenis te herschrijven,” aldus Nahon.
Met de film hoopt de Fransman wetenschappers van over de hele wereld te mobiliseren. Hij wil aantonen dat onze voorouders geavanceerde technologieën hebben achtergelaten waarmee we toegang kunnen krijgen tot vrije energie, gratis communicatie en genezing.
Omdat de gevestigde media het bestaan van de piramides niet willen erkennen, is Nahon van plan wetenschappers, experts en laboratoria in te schakelen om uitsluitsel te geven. Chris Nahon is vooral bekend geworden door zijn films Kiss of the Dragon, Empire of the Wolves en Blood: The Last Vampire.

Après plus de 10 ans de voyage, la sonde européenne Rosetta est arrivée à destination aujourd’hui à 100 km à peine du noyau de la comète 67P Churyumov-Gerasimenko.

La sonde européenne Rosetta s’est installée aujourd’hui à 100 km du noyau de sa comète. « Après dix ans, cinq mois et quatre jours de voyage, cinq passages à proximité du Soleil et 6,4 milliards de kilomètres parcourus, nous avons le plaisir d’annoncer que notre but est enfin atteint », a déclaré aujourd’hui Jean-Jacques Dordain, Directeur général de l’ESA. « La sonde européenne Rosetta est désormais le premier véhicule spatial de l’histoire à avoir effectué un rendez-vous cométaire, ce qui constitue un jalon majeur dans l’exploration de nos origines. C’est maintenant que les découvertes vont vraiment commencer ! »

Rosetta précède le noyau d’une centaine de kilomètres sur son orbite elliptique autour du Soleil. Ces deux corps, l’un naturel et l’autre artificiel, tournent donc actuellement à près de 55 000 km/h autour de notre étoile et ils se situent à 405 millions de km de la Terre. Cette position privilégiée permet aux instruments de Rosetta de voir en permanence la face éclairée de la comète, qui tourne sur elle-même en près de 12,4 h. Durant les semaines qui viennent, la sonde va s’approcher progressivement et le champ gravitationnel du noyau va être étudié pour déterminer le plus précisément possible la masse de ce petit corps du Système solaire et affiner la séquence finale de mise en orbite. À terme, dans quelques semaines, Rosetta devrait parcourir une orbite circulaire à 10 km d’altitude autour du noyau et elle devrait s’en approcher à près de 5 km pour larguer le module Philae, le 11 novembre prochain si tout se déroule bien.

Les instruments de Rosetta sont déjà à l’œuvre pour réaliser une étude scientifique détaillée de la comète afin de trouver un site d’atterrissage pour Philae. L’équipe du SONC (CNES-Toulouse) doit identifier 5 sites possibles d’ici à la fin du mois d’août et un site de référence à la mi-septembre qui sera validé par l’ESA. Elle doit naturellement tenir compte d’une multitude de paramètres et de contraintes techniques et scientifiques, mais le défi est stimulant puisque jamais aucune agence spatiale n’est parvenue à poser une sonde sur une comète à ce jour !

Rosetta est une mission de l’ESA avec des contributions de ses États membres et de la NASA. Philae, l’atterrisseur de Rosetta, est fourni par un consortium dirigé par le DLR, le MPS, le CNES et l'ASI. Rosetta sera la première mission dans l'histoire à se mettre en orbite autour d’une comète, à l’escorter autour du Soleil, et à déployer un atterrisseur à sa surface.

UFO sighting photos from Raposa Serra do Sol, Venezuela on 12th July 2014
UFO sighting photos from Raposa Serra do Sol, Venezuela on 12th July 2014
An amazingUFO sighting was reported near Raposa Serra do Sol, Venezuela in the daytime sky. The sighting was reported on 12th July 2014. In the photo you could see a gray object flying in the sky.
Eigenlijk verbazingwekkend dat er in de mainstreammedia nooit aandacht wordt besteed aan het drukke UFO-verkeer rond het International Space Station (ISS).
Deze opnames worden namelijk niet gemaakt door amateurs, maar worden allemaal vastgelegd via high tech NASA camera’s.
Eén van de redenen dat men klaarblijkelijk vindt dat UFO’s belachelijk of ongeloofwaardig zijn, is gelegen in het feit dat veel van dit soort opnames worden gemaakt door amateurs. Daarnaast zijn er uiteraard de talloze voorbeelden van mensen die het leuk vinden om nepopnames de wereld in te sturen.
Een ander verhaal word het wanneer er onbekende objecten worden vastgelegd door de camera’s van NASA.
En het zijn geen incidentele gebeurtenissen want iedere week worden er wel een aantal gefotografeerd.
Zoals de volgende, enkele dagen geleden op 8 augustus.
Deze UFO werd vastgelegd door de man die al ontelbare keren vreemde objecten heeft ontdekt op film- of foto-opnames van NASA, Streetcap 1.
Ook deze UFO heeft de vorm die door mensen overal worden waargenomen. Een gloeiend object wat eruit ziet als een soort vijfpuntige ster.
Enkele dagen daarvoor, op 4 augustus, werd er eveneens een UFO waargenomen vlakbij het ISS.
Enkele dagen daarvoor, op 31 juli, was het ook raak:
Nog nooit is er door NASA enige verklaring gegeven voor al die onbekende objecten die rond het ISS worden waargenomen. Er ook geen enkele druk op NASA gelegd om dit te doen, dus waarom zouden ze?
De bovenstaande voorbeelden zijn van iets meer dan een week geleden. Wanneer je echter over het hele jaar genomen ziet hoeveel UFO’s er af en aan vliegen bij het ISS dan is het verbazingwekkend dat dit pal onder onze neus kan gebeuren, alles door NASA op videobeelden wordt vastgelegd en dat 99,9 procent van de bevolking hier geen weet van heeft.
A Pennsylvania witness at Indiana recalls an event from August 1976 when a disc-shaped UFO landed near her family’s home and beings were seen on the ground, according to testimony in Case 58760 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness recounts the story in her own words.
“In the late 70′s my mother awoke to visit the restroom in the middle of the night in the top level of our home,” the reporting witness stated. “She happened to look out the window to see a UFO in our backyard, about 1.75 acres away near the woods line.
“It was a saucer-type ship with lights around the rim and she saw small beings walking at the base of the ship in front of the lights. She was frighten and ran back to bed. She had the senses that they may have sensed she was up so she bundled in her covers and faced away from the bedroom window and tried to empty her mind and feign sleep.
“She feared what ‘they’ would do if they sensed they knew she seen them.
“She heard loud clanging sounds and the ship passed slowly by her bedroom window. It paused at the window as if checking to see if she was up and then sped off.
“She said it was as loud as a coal truck clanging down the road. It was so surreal she questioned if it really happened and felt strange saying anything to anyone.
“My bedroom was on the ground level. At about the same time period, I heard a cluster of footsteps run past my window from the backyard to the front. It sounded like there were maybe seven of them spaced a few feet from one another and would be the size of kids 11 years old. We were the only kids on the street with the exception of another boy down the street.
“I wondered if my brothers were sleeping out in a tent in the backyard with friends but they did not so it was unexplained.
“The landing site afterward had three circles where nothing would grow. Today there are still two distinct areas with no growth. Previous to that there was vegetation. It was more sparse than the rest of the yard, but ground cover existed. I’m not sure if soil composition can change but there is a patch of red clay where we never recalled seeing it before.”
The woman looked out her window during the night and saw the UFO had landed near her home in Indiana, Pennsylvania. Pictured: Indiana, Pennsylvania. (Credit: Google)
The witness is asking if MUFON can conduct soil samples of the landing area. Pennsylvania MUFON is investigating. Indiana is a borough in and the county seat of Indiana County, population 13,975. Pennsylvania has a current UFO Alert Rating of 3 with a high number of recent reports nationally. Pennsylvania had 30 UFO reports in July 2014 – the 6th highest reporting state – while California had 104 reports as the highest reporting state. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.

An Ontario, Canada, witness at Burlington reported watching a large, V-shaped UFO that was first thought to be a building – until it moved about 9:40 p.m. on August 10, 2014, according to testimony in Case 58833 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness was driving to a friend’s house when bright red and white lights were first seen.
“I thought it was a structure’s lights until it started moving and I stopped my car,” the witness stated.
The witness described the object.
“It was a wide/long, V-shaped object with two lights at each point, two on the outer wings and one in the middle. Each light was red with a smaller white light atop. Initially I thought it was a building until it started moving.”
This photo was provided by the witness who stopped and used a cell phone to try and capture the large, V-shaped UFO. (Credit: MUFON)
The witness said the object was massive in size.
“I observed the distance and realized just how gigantic it was. I tried to then take pictures with my cell phone after pulling the car over. I then followed it to get more pictures.”
The witness included one photo and one illustration of the event with the MUFON report: Image 1, Illustration 1.
The object moved over a nearby tree line and was lost from view.
Burlington is a city located in Halton Region at the western end of Lake Ontario and is part of the Greater Toronto Area, population 175,779. MUFON Canada is investigating.
Kirsan Ilyumzhinov defeated his opponent, chess legend Garry Kasparov, on Monday, August 11 to retain his position as head of the World Chess Federation (FIDE).
The win for Ilyumzhinov, who has presided over the FIDE for nearly two decades, was expected. But Kasparov was determined to at least attempt unseating Ilyumzhinov because he feels public comments about extraterrestrials made by Ilyumzhinov are negatively affecting the federation, hindering its growth and deterring potential sponsors.
Garry Kasparov (Credit: S.M.S.I., Inc. – Owen Williams, The Kasparov Agency/Wikimedia Commons)
Ilyumzhinov claims to be an alien abductee, and has spoken about his extraterrestrial encounters for more than a decade. Ilyumzhinov, who is a former president of the Russian republic of Kalmykia, stated in 2010 that he met with extraterrestrials in Moscow, where he communicated with them, was shown around their spaceship, and was even taken into space.
But, despite his extraterrestrial tales, the federation seems perfectly happy with its long-sitting president. Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty reports that Ilyumzhinov defeated Kasparov by a 100-61 vote in the August 11 election.
1,000 ft. high) in the sky and were absolutely silent and moving slowly. We observed them for about 5 minutes until they flew out of sight. I even went into the back yard where there was no noise and cupped my ear to the sky as the last one passed, but there was still no sound at all. I called 911 and reported the incident and the dispatcher said there was another report and the police were checking it out. He said they would call me back if they learned anything and, at about 11:15 that night they called me back to tell me there was a similar report from someone in Willow Grove, but that they still did not determine anything more. I contacted the Air Force and they suggested calling the FAA. The FAA suggested I contact MUFON.
It looks like a craft from another galaxy, but this is actually a huge cloud floating above China.
It was spotted over Xiamen city in Fujian province – and the photographer caught the moment an airliner was dramatically silhouetted against the sky close by.
The plane is completely dwarfed by the cloud, which is a type that normally forms when cool air passes over mountains.

Met Office spokesperson Laura Young said: ‘This is an altocumulus lenticularis. Some people think they look like stacked plates.
‘They are normally formed over mountains. The air cools as it’s forced over the mountains, condensation takes place and it forms these lens-shaped clouds – and they stack up on top of each other.
‘However, they can form at all levels and are often nicknamed as UFO clouds.’
The pictures emerged after Bristol was recently transformed into a scene resembling Independence Day by an astonishing cloud formation.

He said: ‘My dog Betsy was barking like mad so I looked out the window and couldn’t believe my eyes.

INVESTIGATORS have shed new light on one of Australia’s greatest aviation mysteries.
Almost 36 years to the month that Victorian pilot Fred Valentich vanished without a trace, an independent researcher says there is evidence suggesting the 20-year-old’s Cessna was spotted in the sky over South Australia — attached to a UFO.
The Victorian UFO Action group wants help to identify a farmer near Adelaide who reportedly witnessed the 30m craft hovering over his property the morning after Mr Valentich went missing.
It is claimed the Cessna was stuck to the side of the craft, leaking oil. The farmer even scratched the plane’s registration number on to his tractor but never came forward with the information because he was ridiculed by the few friends he told.
The theory has sparked furious debate as the nation’s leading UFO investigators prepare for a national conference in Melbourne next month.

Lead investigator George Simpson, one of the last people to see the plane in the sky, says the farmer, if still alive, might have information to solve the mystery.
He conceded there was no proof, but said it was the best new lead for a case that had intrigued Australians for decades. “It’s easy for some to dismiss, but there are corroborating stories confirming that there was a UFO near Adelaide at the time,” Mr Simpson said.
Mr Valentich had been on a routine cargo flight to King Island in October 1978 when he disappeared.
In his last conversation with air traffic control, he reported an object hovering in front of him and said it was “not an aircraft’’. It was the last thing Mr Valentich said before a strange metallic clicking sound was heard and the transmission stopped.
Extensive searches failed to find any trace of the plane or the pilot.
“This was an experienced pilot who should have been able to identify another aircraft but was clearly unable to,” Mr Simpson said.
Adding to the mystery, an amateur photo taken in the area that evening shows a dark unidentifiable shape in the sky.
Investigators are also trying to find a copy of Valentich’s final transmission that was originally aired on Melbourne radio station 3XY.
The Valentich case will be among a string of Aussie X-files to be discussed when the Victorian UFO Action group hosts its “Age of Reason” conference on September 6.
Giant birds, also called “thunderbirds”, are part of the cryptid world. Reports of gigantic birds large enough to carry away humans have been reported throughout history. But are they connected to aliens?
“One night, the boy and his sister were walking home from a neighbors house when they noticed an actual flying object coming to rest on top of a hill. Later, in the early morning light, they found a 30 feet diameter patch of scorched grass.
Then, later on, the boy reported seeing a giant bird on a tree. The parents told the boy that this was exactly the “apparition” the neighbors had been “terrified” about.
“It appeared out of the darkness,” one of the neighbors had told the boy’s father.
There was a “poultry smell” in the air and feathers were also found.
“They were bigger than any bird they had ever seen, ostensibly at least 3 or 4 times bigger than a wedged tail eagle,” Chalker wrote. According to the neighbor’s son, the birds seemed to be gliding with their exceedingly big wings. The beasts, he said, appeared to communicate between them.
“They were monsters… making sounds like unintelligible conversation,” the boy explained.
His sister and father had also been witness to the ominous bird sightings, “hopping down the hill -near the house- with its wings flapping.”

UFO formation over Bishop, California on 3rd August 2014
New interesting video footage of a UFO formation recorded in the night sky above Bishop, California on 3rd August2014.
Witness said: Walked outside last night and seen 4 big, orangish-red, round lights in the sky in Bishop, California. I went inside and got my phone and family and shot this video. Could they be aliens? Government Aircraft? I don’t know but it was crazy in person. The video from my galaxy s3 does not do it justice.
